Visualising Androgen Receptor Activity in Male and Female Mice
Figure 2
Androgen receptor reporter activity in transgenic mice.
(A), Bioluminescent imaging of male and female ARE-Luc and C57/Bl/6J wild type mice, injected with 150mg/kg luciferin substrate, and imaged with a CCCD camera after 10 minutes. Figure represents a greyscale photograph overlaid with a pseudocolour representation of bioluminescence; scale represents photons/sec/cm2.
(B), Luciferase enzymatic assays from tissue homogenates taken from ARE-Luc mice, normalised to protein content (Bradford assay). Male mice upper panel, female mice lower panel.
